Verdict

MONBEG OSCAR has big potential off this sort of handicap mark with this longer trip expected to bring about serious improvement. Also entering calculations is the improving Terry The Fish who shows no signs that the handicapper yet has his measure. Connetable has had a lean spell but may be ready to go well now with another drop in weight.
  1. Monbeg Oscar
